Ah, good. It is still an experiment, as far as I'm concerned. Alas,
I haven't gotten round to look at it, really.
We were discussing this, Jonathan Nieder had two more suggestions/ideas
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2008/8/15/2954214
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2008/8/15/2952004
and Bert reported a bug
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2008/9/1/3152864
The last implementation would just recreate a branch with all new
dependencies, which is quite inefficient when you're just removing
or adding one (and the list of dependencies is long, say ~100).
It would be nice if my previous cherry-pick & revert logic would be
combined with git read-tree to create the new dependencies-base.
That could be much faster and hopefully git read-tree could fix
the multiple add/remove issue.
Greetings,
Jan.
